wer A small amount of HNO3(aq) is added to a solution of FeBr2 as well as to a solution of Fe(CN)2. Which statement is true regarding the solubility of these two salts? The solubility of FeBr2 will not be impacted because Br is too weak a base. The solubility of Fe(CN)2 will not be impacted because CN is too weak a base. O The solubility of Fe(CN)2 will be decreased because the addition of strong acid reduces the amount of CN in solution. The solubility of FeBr2 will be increased because the addition of strong acid reduces the amount of Br´in solution.

A small amount of HNO3(aq) is added to a solution of
FeBr2 as well as to a solution of Fe(CN)2. Which
statement is true regarding the solubility of these two
salts?
The solubility of FeBr2 will not be impacted because
Br is too weak a base.
O
The solubility of Fe(CN)2 will not be impacted
because CN is too weak a base.
The solubility of Fe(CN)2 will be decreased because
the addition of strong acid reduces the amount of
CN in solution.
The solubility of FeBr2 will be increased because the
addition of strong acid reduces the amount of Brin
solution.
